johnnydarkness's Pride of Baghdad #1 - HC review

For everyone

I'm sure you've heard enough about Pride of Baghdad so that I don't have to go over any of the basics.

I also think it would be perfect if you're trying to get a friend to read a comic but they're not interested. This is a story that I believe most people will appreciate.
